Bayfront house on Port Clyde Harbor with views, hot tub, beach access

View was stunning. We really wish we could give this property 5 stars.We arrived to the dishwasher not working, the sunshade on the porch did not work, and there is black mold growing near the fan in the sunroom. There is a very obvious water problem in the sunroom.When we arrived at the house there was a very strong odor of mildew. We immediately opened the windows which helped.Vacasa was zero help to us.

The view from the back deck is spectacular. Watching a working port with lobster boats coming and going is fascinating. We almost got tired of one colorful sunset after another!

The view of the harbor was lovely no matter the time of day. The location was a bit remote but so worth it. Access to the ferry to Monhegan was a pleasant bonus. The hot tub was great for relaxation every evening. Furnishings are a bit rustic but it fit the environment and made the experience lovely. Would stay again.

The old feel of the home takes you back to simpler times.

We hosted a catered lobster bake for the family of our daughter’s fiancée two days before the wedding. The guests are all from South Georgia and many had never been to Maine. The day was picture perfect - temperature around 70, not a cloud, and no wind. When the family members arrived they were blown away by the setting and the views. It was a perfect evening and we were able to give them a quintessential coastal Maine experience. As the sun set we could see the crescent moon on the horizon. We cherish memories of that evening!

This is an older cottage in a beautiful location. Port Clyde is a quaint fishing village with a nearby beach-Drift In Beach. Boat rides to Monhegan Island, kayak rental, and day trips to The Botanical Gardens and Camden Hills State park were highlights. The cottage was comfortable enough, though a small investment in a couple of new sofas and some kitchen utensils would be welcome. A picture window frames an amazing view of the water and boats-the view would be even better with a cleaning.That said, Vacasa was responsive to a call regarding a winnows that wouldn’t open. Overall, a very pleasant vacation spot.

We were very excited about our trip to Maine and this home that included wharf and beach access. Sadly, upon arrival, we discovered that neither was possible. The wharf was/is completely damaged and unusable. Literally floating in the water. Vacasa has been extremely difficult to work with and gave us a measly refund compared to the thousands of dollars we spent renting the home. I learned through the process that VRBO does not regulate Vacasa listings. It is up to Vacasa to do the right thing. That being said VRBO has tried to make it right but I am still dumbfounded that VRBO does not hold them accountable for any misleading listing. All that being said, we did really love the home. It is still like stepping back in time. Very cozy with almost everything you need. The deck needs replacing but is still functional. The awning was a very nice amenity, as well as the hot tub. I wish they would have been honest about the wharf. But in hindsight they are a big company and I don't even think they know its unusable and dangerous. In the future I will make sure I do not book any property managed by Vacasa.

Location was great. But need more dishware and flatware. Hot water was out. But called about it. And was fixed the same day.

I am not want to leave negative reviews and I won’t start now, but I will just say that we loved the place and location but communication with this company and the cleanliness, or lack there of of the hot tub, assured me that I will not stay again with Vacasa

We booked this lovely spot primarily for the outdoor hot tub. We were very disappointed when the hot tub never was balanced chemically before we got there nor during our entire stay after repetitive questioning to have someone come and look at it. We ran out of chlorine, and though I put chlorine in every day, the test strips never registered that there was any chlorine in the hot tub, that was extremely disappointing. In addition, the site claims that there is a woodburning stove. However, there was a note on it, that it was not to be used, so that is basically false advertising. Overall, we enjoyed the location the easy walk to the village and the beautiful sunsets, but with the issues that we had surrounding the hot tub and not being able to use the fireplace, I would not recommend this place.
